Description Boris Vingradov 2018-11-22 07:44:47 UTC

I install eix on clean system - from stage3 and have an error:
(chroot) livecd / # eix-update                                                                           Reading Portage settings...                                                                              Building database (/var/cache/eix/portage.eix)...

Calculating hash tables...                                                                               Writing database file /var/cache/eix/portage.eix...                                                      cannot open database file /var/cache/eix/portage.eix for writing (mode = 'wb')

For work eix directory I have wrong owner (root, need portage):

(chroot) livecd / # ls -al /var/cache/eix/                                                               total 8                                                                                                  drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Nov 22 07:31 .                                                               drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 4096 Nov 22 07:31 ..                                                              -rw-r--r-- 1 root root    0 Nov 22 07:31 .keep_app-portage_eix-0

This directory create by installation system (part of emerge message in console):
--- /var/                                                                                                --- /var/cache/                                                                                          >>> /var/cache/eix/                                                                                      >>> /var/cache/eix/.keep_app-portage_eix-0  

Than I change directory owner to portage eix-update final its work correctly:
(chroot) livecd / # chown -R portage:portage /var/cache/eix                                              (chroot) livecd / # eix-update                                                                           Reading Portage settings...
